I crack jokes and play games and that's really more my nature than being cold.
Wherever we play golf, people come out here to get autographs. They obviously come out to watch us play and see us in action, but they also want to interact with us.
But when I play, I still practice hard and focus on my game.
I'm nervous when I play in the Masters or most other tournaments.
Every player has the option to have metal spikes or other spikes or whatever they feel most comfortable in.
It was a fantastic response from Luke. The result could not have been better and it just shows how good a player he is to have played only eight events in Europe this year and win twice. I'm delighted for him.
And I was hitting it very solid. The last six holes I played extremely well.
I'm still in shock. I started hitting double-crosses out here and you can't do that. I didn't hit another fairway the rest of the round.
On the second part of the question, we all know that the home team, the home captain can setup the golf course any way he wants.
We sat in the house thinking it wasn't going to be all that bad in Boca Raton, and it was bad - much worse than we thought. It was scary at times. I wish we had left. One tree fell on the roof against the house. When the storm blew the other way, the tree was gone off the roof. It was a big tree, nothing you can pick up with five men.
Yes, the German's have a lot of good engineering people and they might be precise but that doesn't mean 85 million people are all precise.
It was painful and difficult to look at. It is even harder to understand. You see one house on high ground and a few hundred feet away there's nothing but rubble.
It was really to cut down the notion or the idea of some people that golf is only for the rich and not a minority sport and all of that kind of thing.
We're here to offer our support and provide the people with some hope.
